THE US EMBASSY IN BAGHDAD: WE ARE COORDINATING WITH KURDISTAN AGAINST “MALICIOUS” ENTITIES TARGETING IRAQ’S STABILITY
The US Embassy in Baghdad announced a meeting between the embassy’s senior defense official and officials from the Kurdistan Region’s Ministry of Interior and the Peshmerga, to coordinate against “malicious” entities targeting Iraq’s stability and infrastructure.
This comes after the Kormor gas field in Sulaymaniyah province was subjected to a “terrorist” attack at the end of last month, and security investigations led by the Iraqi authorities yesterday revealed that it was carried out by two drones by “outlaw” groups.
The US Embassy in Baghdad stated in a short blog post on its official X platform on Thursday, December 4, 2025, that “Senior Defense Official, Colonel Bagley, met with senior officials in the Ministry of Interior and the Peshmerga forces in the Kurdistan Regional Government of Iraq to enhance coordination against malicious actors targeting Iraq’s stability and vital infrastructure,” stressing that “the United States remains committed to supporting security efforts and strengthening Iraq’s sovereignty.”
